Alfonso Cuaron

Alfonso Cuarón talks about managing the studio's anxieties over the many years it took to make Gravity. He addresses why Angelina Jolie -- who was first attached in the lead role-- didn't do the movie, and that the studio wanted him to consider younger actresses or change the sex. Also, he looks back at the career low then ultimately led to him re-discover his love for cinema.
